Kia Ora I’m BlueBelle a Blue Flemish Giant Bunny. I'm over the Rainbow Bridge now binkying with all my new friends, so my bakery is now in memory of me.
My Mom Joanne makes all of our BlueBelle’s treats which are handmade with love, in small batches, fresh in our home in rural Canterbury, Aotearoa - New Zealand.
Mom originally began making healthy treats especially for us, then after they were popular following a charity bake sale for a sick bunny, she created BlueBelle’s named after me, her first rescue bunny, to help fund looking after us & more rescue buns that have joined our whānau (family)
My Husbun Bertie & fellow rescue bunnies Buddy & TinkerBell, Barney & Pearl enjoy tasting and approving all of our hand made treats.
Enjoyed by rabbits, guinea pigs, rats and even our dog Bob.
Mom only uses non sprayed plant ingredients that are researched to be Bunny & Piggy safe to eat, plus quality hay and high fibre pellets.
Forage, Plants and flowers are hand picked, and dried naturally, dehydrated or used fresh.
Our BlueBelle’s treats are not baked but dehydrated at a low heat to retain their valuable nutrients which baking can remove. If oats are in the ingredients they are wholegrain for extra fibre which Mom grinds into a fine oatmeal & pre soaks them before using, so they cannot swell in your fur babies tummy.♡
♡ No added sugars, artificial colours, flavours or preservatives.♡
ꕤ Bunnies & Guinea Pigs love Lucerne Tree leaves & can chew the branches & twigs , it is an evergreen tree from the pea family & high in protein so is a healthy treat that can also help with weight gain in underweight bunnies. Also called Tagasaste the Lucerne tree is from the same plant family as Lucerne hay (Alfalfa hay)
I feed my buns a half arm length of Lucerne tree each a day when I have cut some from the tree , not all the time as just like Lucerne hay it’s high in protein & calcium
Do not feed to bun if they are overweight, as high in protein. Or if bun tends to suffer from bladder sludge, as high in calcium
Tree Lucerne / Tagastase
Tree Lucerne and Lucerne/Alfalfa grass/hay are two distinct plants, but they do come from the same (general) family - the Pea family - Fabaceae. Tree Lucernce = Chamaecytisus proliferus var palmensis. Alfalfa/Lucerne = Medicago sativa.

ꕤ Large Box size 30.5cm x 22.5cm x 14.5cm (new rectangular size)
ꕤ Leaves will dry naturally, if they haven’t been eaten already :) (just loosen them up inside of the box to allow air to leaves & branches underneath, moving them around daily or lay out in the sun to dry , they also keep well fresh in a compostable bag in the front of the fridge)
ꕤ Some seasons twice a year will have white flowers which smell lovely & the bunnies love too
PLEASE BE AWARE THAT I WILL ONLY CUT & SEND THE LUCERNE WHEN IT’S HAD DRY WEATHER FOR TWO DAYS AS IT WILL SPOIL IN THE PARCEL IF WET OR DAMP AT ALL.
